There is a lurking bug in krb5_rd_req_simple().  It uses a component of
the server name to generate a replay cache, and treats that component as
a null-terminated string, which krb5_get_server_rcache wants as an
argument.

Perhaps we should update the interface to krb5_get_server_rcache to take
a krb5_data * rather than a const char *?
